Natalie Leach

Principal HR Consultant | Director

Hi, I’m a seasoned HR consultant with 26 years of hands-on experience in both in-house HR and consulting. I work closely with SMEs navigating South African labour laws, helping businesses and HR leaders make sense of best practices, stay compliant, find top talent, and grow their people, aligned with your vision for success. Over the years, I’ve developed an intuitive ability to spot patterns, read between the lines, and identify candidates who will bring real value to your team.

My empathetic nature, combined with creative problem-solving and a strong sense of leadership, gives me a unique edge in understanding the human side of business. Whether it’s guiding leaders through challenges, helping you steer your ship in the right direction, or designing solutions that fit your needs, I thrive on finding the way forward.

What I love most about HR is the chance to connect with people, support them, and point them in the right direction. It’s incredibly rewarding to help businesses grow by crafting creative, practical HR solutions that fit their needs while staying on the right side of labour laws.

If you’re looking for someone who can make your HR challenges feel less overwhelming, help your leaders through tough moments, and build a thriving team, let’s chat! I’d love to explore how we can work together to take your business to the next level. Book a Virtual Consulting call.
